Fishermen have mobilized at several ports in southern France to protest against soaring fuel prices and their working conditions, according to information reported by France 24.

The government has increased its financial assistance to the profession, raising it from 25 to 35 cents per liter of fuel, the media reports.

Despite this increase, fishing industry representatives believe the measure falls short of addressing the scale of difficulties facing the sector, according to France 24.

The industry has warned that the mobilization movement could continue if no additional action is taken to address their demands, according to the same source.
